I think that solid, one-color, vector-based brushes would be even
better to have. They would make square, round, oval and you-name-it
brushes just a subset of possibilities. All that by implementing one
infrastructure :) — the rest would be defining brush shape.

If, for a polygonal brush, there was a read-only message displayed,
sides: 4px
that might be useful. However, if aspect ratio is not 1:1 I don't know
what would be useful, e.g. for a squashed pentagon...

Hi Prokoudine --

Right now, I am afraid it would not be easy - and I don't see how
someone could go and work on change the measurement on "radius" for
generated brushes to "side" when the shape is square.

However, a way to create a 2px square brush would be to make a 2x2px
selection in agrayscale image, , copy it and edit-> paste as ->
brush...

It would be easy to have that as a plug-in, but I can't think of a way
such a plug-in would not clutter the menus.

However, now that I mentioned it, ther is a File -> create[...] action
that create a brush. (create brush from phrase)

Maybe we could come along with some more 2 or 3 ideas to populate a
file->create->brush...  submenu. There an "Exact square brush..."
could easily fit.

Let's see whatthe maintainers and Peter have to say on sucha  submenu,
and throw in some ideas on whatthe other entries could be.

regards,
